I got drunk and made a list of my favorite black metal albums. Give me suggestions or remind me what I left out. I'll add mini-reviews eventually because otherwise it's just a boring list of albums with no context.

Basically this is my version of Paz's The Best Shit On MS Top albums in alphabetical order one album per band. I did include one non-metal album that isn't on MS because I love Perturbator
Check another one of my lists here

Take a look at the Top Album lists of recent years and you'll notice an obvious trend. In 2005 the average rating of the top 25 albums is 8.76. Jump to 2014 and the average among the top 25 has dropped to 8.26. An almost linear decrease is observable for the 10 years in between.

I was curious to see what a Top 100 for 2000-2014 would look like if I factored the votes to account for the 'rating decline'. I hope you find it interesting.

First impressions and fine climaxes. These aren't necessarily my all time favourites but just ones I consider notable after I started caring about them. Ordered intros then outros and alphabetically. Suggestions very much welcome.

No recent lists for depressive black metal albums on here, probably because no one gives a shit, but i thought i'd make one anyway.
Depression has been a struggle in my life as it probably has been with everyone at some stage, here are some bands that i think evokes that feeling well.

My top 50 albums/EPs of all time in alphabetical order. This list will change over time and if you have any suggestions on bands I might like based on the info provided below, feel free to mention it. Albums with a ❤ have received a 10 from me. Comment/critique/complain away.

Yeah... a very conventional idea for a list, but i couldn't resist in the end finally making this one.
A list of my personal favorites from the blackest metal of them all.
Ordered by personal preferences and updated periodically with only one album/ep/demo per band.
Please enjoy, you might also find some of your likings in here. ^^
...and if not, it can't be helped.

Releases from Canadian bands that I really like. Ordered alphabetically by artists because I'm OCD like like. Will possibly re-order list by favorite album. Limited to one release per band, only full lengths. Essential albums are noted as such.

This is a favorites list, not a guide or anything of that sort. It just highlights the albums that I've enjoyed listening to and spinned extensively since last November (When I got into this monolithic genre.) One entry for each band. The descriptions aren't necessarily descriptions of the music. I just wrote what came to my mind. I will update with new albums frequently.
EDIT: Got to 50 entries, so I guess I'll stop for now. I want more time to revisit these 50, get into the other albums of the bands listed below and delve into other genres of metal. I guess that taking a break from black metal (at least new stuff) will ensure that I won't get bored of it. It is likely that I'll continue this list by the half of July.
